The synopsis: Xie Jiaoyue transmigrated into the role of a love-struck cannon fodder in a male-oriented Dragon King novel. In the book, she spent her life showering the male lead with money and tak...
Chapter 109 Sword Dao Opportunity 8 Perhaps it was because Jiutian Yun was slightly cynical...
Perhaps it was Jiu Tianyun's slightly cynical words that helped to ease the atmosphere, because Xie Xinghui, who had been as nervous as a quail, opened his mouth again.
"That's right. Our Gongshi Moyu is a well-known alchemist in the Jinling City Clan Academy. Back then, he was ranked first in the Clan Academy for several years based on his alchemy lineage."
Even Xie Jiaoyue was unaware of this part. She only knew that Gong Shi Moyu was a very famous alchemist in the clan school, but she didn't know anything about his specific deeds.
Only someone as inquisitive as Xie Xinghui could know so much.
Xie Xinghui didn't shut up after saying that; he kept babbling on and on.
"Besides, Sister Jiaoyue has been the one that Brother Moyu has doted on since she was a child. If something happens to her, wouldn't he turn into a murderous alchemist?"
After saying this, Gongshi Moyu gave Xie Xinghui a sharp look with an unfriendly expression.
Xie Xinghui pretended not to understand: "Did I say something wrong, Brother Moyu? Didn't you and Sister Jiaoyue grow up together? When Sister Jiaoyue was bullied by others when we were little, didn't you always come to her aid?"
A sincere remark left Gongshi Moyu speechless. He stood silently in place, as obedient as a primary school student being scolded by his homeroom teacher, only glancing uncomfortably at Xie Jiaoyue out of the corner of his eye, wanting to see how Xie Jiaoyue would react to Xie Xinghui's words.
Xie Jiaoyue, unable to get up from the straw bed, simply rolled up some straw and threw it at Xie Xinghui's head: "You talk too much, casting a shadow over our pure brother-sister relationship."
Hearing Xie Jiaoyue say this, Gongshi Moyu felt relieved but also slightly disappointed.
He was like a child playing hide-and-seek with his sweetheart. According to the rules of the game, he couldn't be discovered, or he would lose everything. So he was always careful to hide himself, but because of his unspeakable expectations, he would always inadvertently reveal a little bit of himself.
Jiutian Yun sat imposingly in his chair, his gaze revealing a subtlety quite different from his appearance, as he carefully considered the relationship between his newly accepted apprentice and Gongshi Moyu.
It's quite interesting.
He stopped teasing Gongshi Moyu: "Don't worry, I'm a Nascent Soul cultivator. Even if I needed a cultivation vessel, I wouldn't choose one with such a low cultivation level. If I had the resources to cultivate Xie Jiaoyue to a level I could use, wouldn't it be more useful to use her myself?"
Jiutianyun stood up from his chair and walked over to Xie Jiaoyue in two steps. He extended an index finger and placed it on Xie Jiaoyue's wrist, but his eyes were fixed on Gongshi Moyu.
"Besides, don't you know about your sister's constitution? Tsk tsk, although she is a furnace, not just anyone can handle her."
Anyway, he felt he wasn't good enough.
After saying that, he kicked everyone out except Xie Jiaoyue: "Alright, you've all seen the people, so you can rest assured now. You can leave. Gong Shi Moyu, right? Go refine pills. The pill refining room is halfway up the mountain. The rest of you can cultivate if you want. There's a spiritual spring about a hundred meters ahead. Cultivating there is the fastest. Or you can dig for any spiritual items you want. This mountain is all mine. The barrier has been completely closed. No one can enter unless I allow it. Don't worry about anyone else competing with you."
The group of people looked at each other, stunned.
My god, is this the benefit of following Xie Jiaoyue?
The eldest brother found himself a mentor, and they were able to drink so much soup because of him!
They were given the place with the highest concentration of spiritual energy in the entire Qingyuan Secret Realm to cultivate in, and an entire mountain of various spiritual materials that they could freely collect and dig.
Is this really not a scene from a dream?
That's so wonderful.
Xie Xinghui, who had never been well-liked at home since childhood, was so moved that he wanted to cry.
Jin Wan, who had always wanted to prove himself, couldn't stop smiling. He was already imagining how he would show off to his brother after he got out of the village. He was not a useless cook with no ideals, as his grandfather said. He was the cook who had gained the most in this year's Qingyuan Secret Realm!
Even the composed Gongshi Moyu couldn't help but widen his eyes when he saw the various spiritual herbs and the pill formula that Jiutian Yun handed him.
This was a rare and precious elixir formula that he had never seen before, and it was even capable of treating the dantian and meridians!
It should be noted that such prescriptions are not only rare, but most of them have little effect, while this one seems to have a truly miraculous effect.
So after confirming that Jiutianyun would not do anything to Xie Jiaoyue, Gongshi Moyu reluctantly left the thatched hut, turning back every few steps.
After everyone else had left, only the two new master and apprentice remained in the room.
Xie Jiaoyue lay on the bed, unable to move her body, so she waved her arms and made a heart shape with her hands towards the clouds.
Jiutianyun didn't understand: "What does that mean?"
Xie Jiaoyue smiled and said, "I am thanking Master. Originally, Master did not need to go to so much trouble. He could have just taken care of me. The reason he notified them to come over was to put my mind at ease. Of course, I am grateful to Master for being so thoughtful."
Jiutian Yun had only done it casually, not expecting Xie Jiaoyue to understand. But the fact that his casual act had been noticed made Jiutian Yun feel incredibly comfortable and at ease.
"Do you know why I sent them away?"
"The disciple thought that the master probably wanted to have a good talk with him about why he accepted me as his disciple."
Jiutianyun once again felt that talking to someone like Xie Jiaoyue was comfortable; she was smart when she needed to be, and confused when she needed to be.
He didn't probe any further, but said directly, "Since you know who I am, you should also know that I have a natural interest in seeing all kinds of spiritual swords. Don't laugh at me, but I have been waiting here for the Azure Kite Sword for many years, only to have all the fruits taken away by a junior."
He spoke the last few words through gritted teeth. The fact that he wouldn't directly attack Chu Xingjin didn't mean he wasn't angry.
He didn't necessarily demand that Chu Xingjin give him the item, but he should at least let him take a look! Let him study it for a while!
After venting his displeasure, Jiutian Yun continued, "So, you really did impress me with that pile of spirit swords." He was somewhat puzzled, "But are you really willing to part with them? Although there weren't any Heaven-grade spirit swords among them, there were a few Earth-grade spirit swords, and they were all rare items among humans. Are you really willing to part with them?"
Xie Jiaoyue's tone was very sincere: "Why would I be reluctant? I have already formed a contract with my natal spirit sword, and these spirit swords are of no use to me. Naturally, they are for the people I like."
Jiutian Yun, who was always poor, was puzzled: "These things must be very valuable, right? You spent a lot of spirit stones to buy things you don't have?"
Xie Jiaoyue briefly introduced her relationship with the Lanshan Lane Auction House, concealing her identity as the Demon King of Tushanxi. She only mentioned that she had saved the auction house with spirit stones and stated that her goal was to have a continuous supply of spirit stones in the future and to have the opportunity to obtain rare spiritual items and magical treasures as soon as possible.
Xie Jiaoyue said, "Spirit stones are just a pile of shiny stones if you don't spend them. They only have value when you spend them."
Jiutianyun couldn't help but ask, "How many spirit stones do you actually have?"
This is a question that Xie Jiaoyue herself cannot answer. According to the system, she is the richest person in the entire cultivation world. There is no specific number, but she is simply wealthy!
Xie Jiaoyue gave an ambiguous answer: "In any case, I can do everything I want to do. Master, if you want something, although I may not be able to buy it for you right away, with a little effort, it shouldn't be a problem."
The impoverished swordsman, Jiutian Yun, had never heard such words before and almost drooled with envy.
We're both sword cultivators, so why is there such a huge difference between us!
He used to think he was someone who wouldn't be tempted by money, but when he saw that huge pile of spirit swords, he realized that he hadn't been tempted before simply because the temptation wasn't strong enough.
Those powerful families were incredibly cunning, calculating down to the smallest detail. They wanted to give him apprentices, but only wanted to pay a tiny price, so of course he wasn't tempted.
Now, one of his apprentices says he can buy him anything he wants.
With Heaven's will above all, he truly couldn't help but be moved.
He immediately decided, "I've decided to take you as my disciple! Once the exit of the Azure Kite Secret Realm opens, I'll go out with you all. At that time, you'll have to introduce me to the manager of the Lanshan Lane Auction House."
Xie Jiaoyue coughed twice, her voice weak: "Master, I've shown you my sincerity, shouldn't you give me something in return?"
Just as Jiutian Yun was about to say, "How can a disciple talk to his master like that?" he turned around and saw Xie Jiaoyue looking at him pitifully with a pale face.
It's hard to get angry.
"Speak, is there anything you want me to help you with?"
Xie Jiaoyue's eyes lit up; there were so many.
First and foremost is her physical condition.
She had long known that her constitution was special, but after reading through various books, she still couldn't find out what the problem was. However, just now, Jiutianyun revealed that he knew about her special constitution.
"Master, do you know what's wrong with my constitution?"
Jiutianyun placed his index finger on Xie Jiaoyue's wrist once again, and a wisp of spiritual energy slowly flowed into Xie Jiaoyue's body through his finger: "You're quite bold. We've only known each other for a short while, and you dare to let me investigate you like this."
Xie Jiaoyue chuckled but remained silent.
What's there to be afraid of? She's not Chu Xingjin, who always feels like someone wants to harm her.
Jiutianyun removed his hand after a short while, rotated his wrist to relax, and looked into Xie Jiaoyue's eyes, saying, "Don't you think your eyes are a bit lighter in color than other people's? Although it's not obvious, it's one of the signs of the Yin Body."
"Heaven is fair and there is never a way out. There is always a glimmer of hope. The way out for the furnace is the Yin Body. Whether it is innate or acquired, as long as the furnace can be transformed into the Yin Body, it can benefit itself instead of others. Those who want to use the Yin Body as a furnace for dual cultivation will only end up tragically becoming nourishment for the Yin Body."
Xie Jiaoyue's eyebrows twitched. She, a mere cannon fodder character, had no impure relationship with the male lead.
It's a bit of a pity.
If she could drain the luck of the chosen one of Heaven, she could tolerate it even if the target was Chu Xingjin.
